Tim Daisy, Jeb Bishop, Carrie Shull

When: Wed., July 3, 7 p.m. 2013

About a year ago, well-traveled North Carolina native Jeb Bishop returned to live in Chapel Hill. Back in Chicago, Bishop had risen to prominence within the cities deep fre jazz scene, but he found that his old Tar Heel haunts offered less in the way of improvising opportunities. "It's a question of making it happen, but it's been a question of making it happen for 20-some years," he explained in an interview. Indeed, since Bishop's re-arrival, he has made it happen, it being gigs with traveling and local free players alike. Tonight, he links with brilliant and patient Chicago drummer Tim Daisy, traveling the Midwest and Southeast on a short solo tour. Carrie Shull, now in the midst of a residency with Eugene Chadbourne, joins the group. —Grayson Currin
